(BIVN) – A one-week closure is set for James Kealoha Beach Park in Keaukaha next week, for a planned restriping of the park’s roadway and parking areas.

One year ago, Kealoha Beach Park underwent a complete repaving of the park’s roadway and parking areas, and a new system of reverse angled parking was established throughout the park.

From the County of Hawaiʻi:

Hawaiʻi County Department of Parks and Recreation announces James Kealoha Beach Park in Keaukaha, South Hilo, will be closed from Monday, September 18, 2023, to Friday, September 22, 2023, from 7:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. daily for restriping of the park’s roadway and parking areas.
